Pole Passion Instructor Training - Pole & Burlesque - what makes us so unique and special

Highlights of the Pole Passion Pole & Burlesque Instructor training



Pole Passion’s foundations were established in the Pole industry from its birth here in the UK since the early 2000’s before it was desired as a fitness form and most definitely before it was considered as one of the new ideas for thousands of ladies and some men, across the world to keep healthy and active while having great challenging fun.

Founder Kay Penney, passionate about all things fitness, decided to think out of the box and design something new for the fitness industry. Of course it didn’t start out like that as Kay found the techniques on and around the pole a personal challenge when looking for something to rekindle her figure and mental positivity, after having given birth of her third child. A mammoth and almost impossible task at that time, especially as the fitness consultant she employed to help her, after one year, told her Pole Dance and Fitness would not be accepted or accredited in the fitness industry and IF they were,!! it would take at least 8 years or so – Fuelled by those words, Kay, what some two years later, had Pole Passion’s comprehensive fitness Instructor level 1 and Advanced level 2 courses accredited by REP’s (Register of Exercise Professionals) the route of all European fitness professionals that are monitored yearly and governed by strict code of conducts. Later published, Elite Accredited Level 3 and Burlesque for Fitness accredited courses, now also offered.

Pole Passion today is one of the most highly recognised Pole Training Providers and Brands in the pole world – developing comprehensive courses with great, comprehensive content and excellent value for money. One day courses costing as little as £150, we also offer discounts if more than one course is booked at the same time too. Students have attended as far from the USA, Russia, Europe, Ireland and Scotland to learn the Pole Passion way. We pride ourselves on being thorough and progressing each individual to their next stage, before, during and after they have attended our courses, whether an experienced instructor already with a fitness and dance back grounds looking for the well-deserved credibility or whether totally new to fitness, dance and or the pole 

The main benefits of becoming accredited have to be by far the credibility aspect and industry recognition in what you do is recognised and awarded to the highest of industry awards not to mention the fact your insurance will be cheaper and valid too. You will have the confidence and peace of mind you are teaching safely, correctly and effectively:- learning ways of progressing and supporting your participants without causing possible delayed injury or incorrect techniques.

Our other achievements
Uniquely we wrote the Code of Pole Practice in 2006 to help set the industry standards, desperate to keep and acknowledge all the hard work that was being invested and created in the pole industry by this time. We designed rules and regulations for national and international competitions of all grades and created courses and invited the first master trainers to the UK by the arrival of Pantera USA in 2006 to support UK polers. NEW for 2012 we are now offering license opportunities to join our team at a very low set up costs once you have reached the required industry standards. We also offer you to join our Rpole equipment affiliate programme whereby sharing the rewards throughout the pole industry. Rpole was innovated by the Pole Passion team as there was a need for a portable and lightweight pole that could go anywhere, easily, to support our training programmes – Today we are proud to have created the world’s first, most portable and lightest pole in the world. We inspire people from all walks of life, from world champions, Felix Cane and Alesia Vazmitsel to everyday people, like me, offering world wide networking opportunities and to be part of World Pole Dance and Miss Pole Dance UK, owned and operated by Pole Passion, with our motto always being -

Felix Cane new World Pole Dance Champion 2010



The first weekend of October saw the event that the whole pole dance and fitness professionals all over the world had been waiting for:- The World Pole Sport Fitness (Official World Pole Dance Championships 2010). Presented by Pole Passion and Loft1 fitness, the Championships – dubbed “the World Cup of Pole Dance Fitness”- took place at the exquisite Radisson Blu Hotel in picturesque Zurich, Switzerland.

The finals competition saw 13 competitors from every corner of the globe compete for a chance to hold the coveted title for the coming year. Top seeds Felix Cane (of Cirque du Soleil), Aleisa Vazmitzel (of ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent) and Jenyne Butterfly automatically went through to the finals, with the remaining ten places up for grabs during the group stages (a mixture of seeded and wildcard entries).

Contestants were judged on their presentation, dance and fitness and pole tricks ability during the competition. Routine quality was unbelievably high from all contestants with super human strength, death defying stunts, impossible spins and seamless transitions demonstrated by all.

First Runner up Rafaela Montanaro (Brazil) wowed audience and judges alike with her stellar demonstrations of superhuman strength and poise, Second Place winner Maria Escalante (Argentina) worked traditional Argentine tango together with seamless pole tricks and Winner Felix Cane (Australia) performed a high octane routine flawlessly with her trademark flexibility and smooth combinations.

Organiser Kay Penney had this to say about the event “I am so proud that all the competitors have exhibited such a high professional standard of dance performance, fitness, strength and decorum during the competition. The World Pole Dance Champion must be both an athlete and an ambassador for the pole industry and I believe that in Felix Cane, we have found that Champion”.
